Review on Airthings 2960 View Plus Humidity Sensor by Jake Powell

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Best App & System

I have Airthings View Bought Plus (this device) and Airthings Wave Plus. Wave Plus has no Wi-Fi and only syncs via Bluetooth - using a phone and a proprietary SmartLink radio with an Airthings hub. Also, the Wave Plus doesn't have a display or PM2.5 sensor like the View Plus. View Plus can act as a SmartLink Hub for Wave Plus, but only when View Plus is connected to USB power (not batteries). View Plus is twice the price of Wave Plus, but it's worth it. Both devices work well together and are very sensitive. I think the sensors are accurate and show the same readings when merged within 5%. The application is easy to use and shows up-to-the-minute trends as well as long-term averages. Good to know about air quality. Our cat contracted asthma and was having an asthma attack when we got PM2.5 and VOC pollution from the polluted outdoor air from wildfires (a terrible consequence of climate change, I know). But that's the life we're living now. Survival is no longer possible without constant monitoring of the air.

Pros
  • EASY TO USE: View your data anytime, anywhere with the free Airthings app (iOS/Android) and online dashboard with graphs, notifications and insights
Cons
